    Letter and number of the day

    Murray's "Pee-AAYCe" is more like outdated 1990's rap slang, if anything. I find it cute, but like I said... his ending letter and number announcements need to be varied.

    Muppet Star Wars line expanded

    The Scooter especially. I like the other two, but Scooter, while it's great to see more merchandising with him, just doesn't seem like a good character fit. Plus, it looks like a fan made thing if anything. And while the Animal figure is pretty cool, why isn't there another character playing...

    Toonami's Coming Back!!

    Eh... Glad it's back and all, but does it have to be on Adult Swim? That's probably the compromise, but it sounds like they're going to just take their existing adult anime and put wrap-arounds on them. Still, the fact that they ended things so poorly and replaced them with garbage movies...

    Pixar taking a cue from "The Muppets"

    While I somehow liked Cars 2 better than the first one, I think that was their low point. That was clearly for 5-7 year olds that liked the first one, and a matter of marketing. Personally, I'm glad that we're getting the first original Pixar movie since Up. Though we won't get another...

    Tiny Toons How I Spent my Summer Vacation

    Spielberg's caricature appears in all the shows, but Frank Welker played him. That cameo in Tiny Toons was the only time he voiced himself.

    Tiny Toons How I Spent my Summer Vacation

    Like I said, he helped shape the show and in the case of Animaniacs by choosing which segments the show was going to be composed of. His daughter actually chose the Buttons and Mindy segment. Spielberg did play himself on the ONLY occasion, on Tiny Toons, on the Buster and Babs go Hawaiian...

    Battleship Box Office Weak, Avengers Still Strong, And The Dictator Still On Lows

    Yes. I'm more shocked anyone would see Battleship. It's another a-BAY-mination. Sacha Baron Cohen's humor is a matter of taste, but he has fans. Almost saw it Thursday and waited to see The Avengers today, actually. But I hate to think for one second anyone wants to see anything even...

    Threadless Sesame Street T-Shirt Design Challenge

    That one is wonderful. It has a great Jack Davis feel to it. I especially like how they chose that specific Herry too. I really hope it goes to strong concepts with great art and not just flashiest arrangement of basic components of the characters. The entries that were good were REALLY...

    Battleship Box Office Weak, Avengers Still Strong, And The Dictator Still On Lows

    The fact that Battleship even came in at number 2 is an insult to humanity. I'm glad Avengers is still making a fortune, and clearly going to kick its butt this weekened too, especially since I saw it Thursday and it was AMAZING. But I don't see how this is weekend box office when the Weekend...

    New Muppet movie in development for potential 2013 release

    It was announced well over a year ago... probably several months after the release of the first one. I hope this one has more mad science in it.

    Letter and number of the day

    If not canonically, then comedically. Prairie is an excellent straight man, being the perfect little girl that knows everything, and Cookie being the more controlled uncontrollable type (more controlled than Animal, at least). Constant Cookie vs. Prairie skits would be a way to get Prairie on...

    Tiny Toons How I Spent my Summer Vacation

    "He did" is basically he gave money and his production company to make these shows. he DID choose what segments were going to be in Animaniacs though, and he shaped the programs... creation, not so much. There was some input on the part of Spielberg on Tiny Toons... it gets tricky, so I'll...

    Being Able To Print Toys At Home? Future Is Here

    Liked for reference to M.U.S.C.L.E. It'd probably be a fortune to copy those little guys, though... otherwise I'd want a plastic copy of my most prized M.U.S.C.L.E. The Japanese Kinishi figure of Kinnikuman super deformed Kinnikuman wearing a kimono from the third ending of the cartoon...

    Tiny Toons How I Spent my Summer Vacation

    Probably won't. The DVD release of Tweety's High Flying Adventures didn't. Hey there, It's Yogi Bear didn't. The Man Called Flintstone didn't. I don't see why throwing 30 minutes extra worth of cartoon is so much of a pain for them to have to add.

    Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio is finally happening with Henson Co.

    Would happen, then. If he used his own production company as well.
